Description

Definition
GEO_ZW2005 (V101_ZW2005) indicates the region of Zimbabwe where the respondent was interviewed. DHS regions in the 2005 Zimbabwe survey are equivalent to provinces.

Other sample years have their own sample-specific geography variables. There is also an integrated variable GEO_ZW1994_2015, that provides spatially consistent units over time.

A GIS map for GEO_ZW2005 (in shapefile format) can be downloaded from the DHS Program Spatial Data Repository [URL omitted from DDI.] Boundaries page.
